### Overview

Retrieves the user who is on-call for the specified schedule at a given time. This endpoint does not support schedules with multiple concurrent on-call responders at a position. Deprecated. Use `Get on-call responders for a schedule` instead.

This endpoint requires the `on_call_read` permission.
